^ Steve, these headphones are fucked up…

Not sure if he speaks on the album but he’s definitely referenced.

Pretty funny to see people shit talk Pino Palladino.

As mentioned in a previous post, I'm not questioning at all his talent, so I don't feel that I'm shit talking him. However, the particular sound that is being referred to as Pino's "technique" on his Wikipedia page is the cringe-worthy bass sound that is being referred to in the above posts:

"Palladino is noted for his use of the fretless bass on many albums. While it was typical for a bass in a commercial track to have a rather generic sound and stay "playing the low notes", Palladino preferred a different sound, combining fretless tone with an octaver effect, and basslines that frequently added chords, lead lines, and counter-melodies in the higher range of the instrument. Typical of this style was his playing on Paul Young's "Wherever I Lay My Hat". His equipment at that time included a fretless 1979 Music Man StingRay Bass and Boss octave pedal (OC-2)."

It seems that he's moved on from that sound after the '80s. He certainly has a different sound when he plays with The Who.

Even if the bands he played with are shit, Pino's basslines have definitely been the soundtrack for plenty of sex. People say "queef" like it's a bad thing, and it makes me think they don't really know what a queef sounds like. I doubt anyone here has bass tones that get the pussy talking.

I don't doubt that. I'm sure plenty of folks have had sex to "Everytime You Go Away" and "The Lady in Red".

Would pass on this 80s smooth funk compilation.

I think the over pumping synth/bass sidechain trick is going to be the gated snare reverb of the modern era. I hate it so much.

Good call. I get mildly nauseous hearing 15 seconds of it in a commercial or whatever, I can't imagine how some people listen to this shit through earbuds all day.

No bleed
